Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 June 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan.
Afghanistan
I welcome my right hon. Friend's statement and the progress that has been made in Afghanistan. Does he agree that one of the keys to more progress in southern Afghanistan is co-operation with Pakistan? Despite the critical statements that are often made, and which the hon. Member for Woodspring (Dr. Fox) repeated today, does my right hon. Friend agree that Pakistan is making a genuine sacrifice? More than 1,000 Pakistani soldiers have been killed in the northern territories and on the borders of Pakistan.
